Tasty Dish Snack Tubs Undergo Allergy Alert

Nassau Candy Distributors issued a recall for unlabeled snack tubs that do not properly list ingredients linked to severe allergies. The Tasty Dish Snack tubs were sold nationwide at Bed Bath & Beyond retail stores throughout the country. The specific products included in the recall are:

  • Chocolate Almonds
  • Chocolate Raisins
  • Sour Neon Worms


Apparently, the problem occurred when one of the labeling machines failed to apply the appropriate label to the packages. The retailers have been notified and all packages that are missing labels were removed from the shelves. So far, no illnesses are reported in relation to the missing labels. As a precaution to mitigate potential medical negligence, the company issued its voluntary recall.

People with food allergies must avoid those ingredients that cause allergic reactions. Some of the most common are:

  • Tree Nuts
  • Peanuts
  • Milk
  • Soy


Improperly labeled products put people in danger of suffering mild to severe allergic reactions, even death. People who purchased this product without a label on the back of the package are urged to return the product to Bed Bath & Beyond for a full refund.

If you or a loved one suffered any level of allergic reaction due to this labeling error, you should contact an attorney to discuss your legal options. Please contact an experienced product liability attorney at Schlichter, Bogard & Denton, LLP to find out more.
